Ganzerello

Photo of the label of Ganzerello

Il Ganzerello takes origine from two parcels, one that embraces the Gaiospino vineyard, sharing its elegance, the other on clay and marl, infusing it with texture. With the noble and elegant nature typical of Sangiovese, it becomes playful and carefree when combined with Syrah, giving it its local "cool guy" vibe
